Deferment – a period of time during which payments are postponed. Deferments usually require documentation. There are different types of deferment for which borrowers can apply, such as in-school deferments, graduate or fellowship programs, a rehabilitation training program for individuals with disabilities, unemployment, economic hardship or military service.

Forbearance – an agreement between a borrower and the lender to temporarily postpone payments, extends the timeframe for making monthly payments, or reduces the amount of monthly payments on a short-term basis.

Cancellation – a portion of the loan principal may be cancelled for each full year of service. See benefit forms for specifications.
